Rebirth of Chinese Entertainment, the Diary of a 95 Flower

"Oh, okay."

Yang Di chuckled and replied.

Favoritism in the workplace is never hidden; those without connections have to be careful even when greeting someone.

He obediently bypassed the sofa area, passed Yang Chaoyue's empty seat, and came to Zhao Lushi's side. Yang Di sat down in the seat with his name on it.

Greet people around you warmly and try to build up your network.

He glanced back at the two girls standing at the door, who had been standing with him but were now greeting Wang Han.

Especially when she saw Jiang Yang beside her.

Yang Di understood.

As an internet celebrity, he naturally knew that the production team valued the guests. Those two girls were brought by Jiang Yang, while he was brought by his mother. Jiang Yang's role in the production team was much more important than his mother's.

In other words, the reason why the celebrity guests on set could smile and respond to Zhao Lushi and Yang Chaoyue, and why the production assistant could get them to greet the celebrity guests, was because Jiang Yang, who was behind them, was very useful to the production team.

"Have you prepared any proposals?" Yang Di asked the people around him.

"What kind of proposals can we prepare? We're just background figures. We're lucky if we can even meet the celebrities. We're just there to create atmosphere. Why would the production team waste their screen time on us?"

Connections aren't everything, but without them, you'll definitely take many detours.

The speaker was a minor internet celebrity like Yang Di: "Those two girls are more like it. Yang Chaoyue and Zhao Lushi, I heard they were brought by Jiang Yang. They'll definitely get some screen time later. They're all people with connections. People are different from each other. We have no background, so we should just be background figures."

"What if there's a chance?"

"Yang Di, you didn't actually prepare a proposal, did you?"

“I wasn’t prepared,” Yang Di said with a smile, “but now that you’ve mentioned it, I have a proposal.”

"What is it?"

"It's what you just said..."

Yang Di said seriously, "I've discovered that people are different. People like us without any background were directly ushered to our seats by the production assistant. But Zhao Lushi and Yang Chaoyue were able to be led by Jiang Yang to greet celebrities. So, I still prefer my bed. My bed doesn't look down on me or care about my background. My bed is always waiting for me. My bed is great."

The words fell.

Everyone around burst into laughter.

"Hahahaha, what is this? Yang Di, you're so funny. Even Lao Xue would say 'What the hell?' if he heard this."

Yang Di laughed heartily.

Immersed in the joy of making others laugh, he suddenly felt someone staring at him.

Looking up, he saw Zhao Lushi, who was standing next to Director Wang Han, staring at him with sharp eyes.

A fierce look in his eyes.

Yang Di lowered his head guiltily and didn't dare to say a word.

I usually enjoy using my life experiences as material, packaging them into jokes, and telling them to others.

Just like that.

Habits formed during my student days.

The problem is, with the scene so noisy, Zhao Lushi shouldn't have been able to hear anything.

"Ruth, what are you looking at? What's wrong?" Yang Chaoyue asked Zhao Lushi beside him.

"I heard someone chirping at us."

"Really? You can hear that? Where is that person?"

"I can't see clearly, I'm nearsighted."

Zhao Lushi said seriously, "But I really heard it. It seems like we've been made a joke out of the public."

Hear the words.

Yang Chaoyue glanced at Zhao Lushi's perky elf ears.

In such a noisy studio, you could clearly hear people talking about the two of them, and it wasn't even inside the studio, but rather people in the junior agents' seats.

In the past, Yang Chaoyue would not have believed it.

I think Zhao Lushi is hallucinating.

But ever since witnessing Bai Lu's eagle-like eyesight, Yang Chaoyue felt that anything was possible.

After all, when they first met Mai Mai, who would have thought that such a quiet and well-behaved girl would, once her true nature was revealed, turn out to be a bratty kid who spoke with a strong local accent and liked to cause trouble and join in the fun?

Is Ma Jie's hearing comparable to Bai Lu's eyesight?
She could hear someone insulting her at any moment, and then she'd retaliate with her unparalleled tongue!

I don't have the mind to think about these things.

"Have you found Ruth yet?"

"I couldn't find her. I wish Bai Lu was here." Zhao Lushi muttered under her breath, "I don't even know these internet celebrities. They started cricketing at me right in front of me. Their manners are really worse than mine."

Yang Chaoyue suppressed a laugh.

Listening to Sister Su compare her manners with others gives me the same feeling as hearing Mai Mai say, "I don't think I have an accent."

"Ruth, this is Brother Han."

Upon hearing Jiang Yang's voice, Zhao Lushi immediately turned around, a smile spreading across her face: "Hello, Brother Han, I am Zhao Lushi."

Wang Han did not dress up in a particularly elaborate manner during the rehearsal.

He wore white sneakers under his casual pants, his hair was neatly combed, and he had his usual gentle smile on his face: "Ruth, who studies at a university in Taiwan Province?"

"Yes, Brother Han, it's me," Zhao Lushi said with a smile.

“Xuefu is also an artist from Taiwan Province.”

"Huh? Brother Han, you called me?"

On the other side, Guo Xuefu held a process sheet in her hand and occasionally whispered to the staff around her.

Hearing Wang Han call her name, she walked over.

She wore a knitted short-sleeved top paired with a denim mini skirt, revealing her fair, long legs.

She wore white canvas shoes, her long, soft hair cascading over her shoulders, a sweet smile on her face, and a hint of curiosity in her eyes: "Are you calling me?"

She went solo from the girl group Dream Girls and is under contract with Dorian Entertainment in Taiwan.

He once single-handedly propelled her from an advertising model to the throne of Taiwan's number one beauty, and this year he is fully committed to helping her expand into the mainland market.

Therefore, they would not miss any opportunity to mention her.

Knowing that Wang Han mentioned her while chatting with Zhao Lushi, Guo Xuefu still shook hands with Jiang Yang as soon as she came over: "Hello Jiang Yang, you are even more handsome in real life than in the interview."

"You look better on camera than on camera."

"Oh really?"

Guo Xuefu covered her face and smiled.

This seemingly casual conversation actually hides a clear consideration.

I had already learned from the staff that Jiang Yang was a popular online writer who was on the rise. Even Yang Chaoyue and Zhao Lushi got into the program through his connections.

She was eager to gain a foothold in mainland China.

By cultivating a good relationship with Jiang Yang, she might be able to leverage his popularity to enhance her presence on the show.

After all, in the fiercely competitive world of variety shows, personal connections are often the key to breaking the deadlock.

As for Yang Chaoyue and Zhao Lushi, whom Jiang Yang brought, Guo Xuefu wasn't very interested in talking to them. She only chatted casually for a few minutes out of respect for Jiang Yang, and soon asked Jiang Yang:
"I'm from New Taipei City, Taiwan Province. Jiang Yang, what about you?"

"I'm from Chongqing."

Jiang Yang didn't say much to Guo Xuefu.

You can sense the sweet and refreshing charm unique to girls from southern Fujian, and the under-eye bags are particularly noticeable when she smiles.

She appeared very innocent.

I know this is a persona that Guo Xuefu deliberately puts on, because she debuted in a girl group in Taiwan and can do hot dances effortlessly.

In comparison, Ning Jing seemed much more easygoing.

Her makeup was light and her hair was loosely tied back, making her look capable and composed.

He gave Jiang Yang a brief compliment: "Your grades are pretty good, young man. If you hadn't chosen Beijing Film Academy, Huang Lei would probably be furious, hahaha. I've also been watching the drama you recently filmed, 'Fighter of the Destiny'."

I chatted with Zhou Jie about farming.

Chatting with Qian Feng about beautiful women.

He Tianyuan talks about poetry.

Talking about music with Liu Wei.

Jiang Yang led Chao Yue and Ruth around for a brief introduction before letting them return to their seats.

Wang Han patted Jiang Yang: "By the way, Xiao Jiang, you haven't submitted Chao Yue's proposal yet. In the process, I need to call on Chao Yue. She has to explain her proposal and let the director review it first."

"A proposal that goes beyond expectations..."

Jiang Yang had a headache.

Even now, Yang Chaoyue hasn't come up with a new proposal.

Jiang Yang sent the document that Yang Chaoyue had given him earlier to Wang Han.

"Wow, that's impressive! You've prepared three proposals, but wait... why are they all related to money?!" (End of Chapter)
